Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Didn't make it to work due to stupid earache and cough and stuff. Slept a lot and now forcing myself to stay awake and drink a lot of water.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Is there anything else...?

Book(s) to read on the plane?

Earphones?

It's a long flight. Consider a backup battery for the smartphone? (I keep one similar to this in my emergency kit. They sell them in the checkout lines at my local grocery stores for $5-$10. They probably sell them at the airport, too -- but for a lot more.)

Our wings are not tired.

Zen, if you would like I could send you my packing list. I always work from my list because brain like sieve.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Backup battery, books, and a voltage converter. I don't use earphones.

Just got back from a colleague's funeral. Funeral mass makes everyone sound the same.

The last funeral mass I went to was most annoying because the priest kept calling the deceased by her formal name, when absolutely everyone called her by her nickname, including the priest whom she had known for decades.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Tired. Flight ended up taking off over 2 hours late, so we didn't land in DC until 10. Luckily, we didn't check any bags, so once we got off the plane, and got the little guy in his stroller, we went straight to the car.

The priest had this whole thing about L, my colleague, on her death bed. He said she was a beautiful soul like 17 times. It just felt like he didn't know her. It was also the first time since 1993 that I have been to a Catholic mass. I couldn't remember what they changed the Peace Be With You response to. But they sang hymns I knew.

Oh man, that's rough, Kat. (And the fact that they changed the words to mass weirds me out)

I'm halfway through Yuletide: into the M's. And there is a lot of EXCELLENT Martian fic!! Highly recommend.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Chicago is a giant slushee right now.
